M. Ward + Conor Oberst + Jim James = Monsters of Folk

17Jul09

Conor Oberst is at it again. I guess when he’s not performing with the Mystic Valley Band, or recording his own stuff as Bright Eyes, he’s hanging out with M. Ward and My Morning Jacket’s Jim James. The trio, along with producer Mike Mogis will release an album on 9-22-09 under the name Monsters of Folk. The group has also announced plans for a fall tour, which will start on October 13 in Vancouver, BC and then hit a bunch of cities across the U.S. and Europe. Some of the proceeds from ticket sales will go to local charities.

The group is offering a FREE DOWNLOAD of “Say Please”, the first track from their album, on the Monsters of Folk website.

All they ask is that you’re polite, and they will give you the download.
